The rich don’t care which side you’re on, as long as you’re fighting each other.

I don't play that game. I only do what I can do with what I have and don't care about losing time with pointless fights.

I may not be able to save the whole planet, but at least I'll leave my area a bit better as my capacity and time allows.

Both sides aren't fighting each other, one side has turned themselves into a weapon for rich pedophiles to attack the other side with.

Notably, both sides held that exact view in recent times.

> Renewables are considered woke technology which mock old and masculine fossil fuel tech...

This is mostly a US problem at this point. The rest of the world is adopting renewables considerably faster than anyone expected (and despite the best efforts of the current administration, the adoption curve is accelerating even in the US).

That said, it's still apparent that even optimistic estimates of renewable energy adoption aren't fast enough to fix the climate crisis on their own.

Yeah I know, and I'm not from that side of the ocean. I worded my comment like that since most users here are from the US.

electricitymaps paints a nice picture, though. We'll be using them in a project, so I'll be able to see the nitty gritty details soonish.

At least some of us are trying. Maybe we'll fail, but not all of us are that ignorant, and that's better than nothing.
